OK, things are looking good for a Saturday release event here at
Chelsea School (711 Pershing Drive, Silver Spring, MD).

Planned:

Screening of Revolution OS for background noise
All Precise versions available for exploration (I don't expect to have
very many workstations - but I do have Remmina and plenty of
virtualization tech).
A wide variety of other distros; from Commodore OS (Ubuntu based) to
CentOS to Bodhi to Solaris. Again, no workstations but plenty of
virtual machines to choose from for anyone with remote client apps.
Snacks: Our junior class is rallying to have lanparty type snacks for
sale. Cheesy Poofs and Snacky Cakes, Red Bull and Coffee drinks. And
colas and water.
I"m burning 32bit Ubuntu as quickly as I can. I have 4 32-bit USB
drives for install.
At least one instructor besides me to talk about assistive and ed tech
at Chelsea School (we serve many students with language-based learning
differences).

I have heard from a person as far off as Ohio that intends to come.
But I've really only heard from three people in all, one from this
list. I have questions; I hope they match your answers.

How many people is smart to plan for?

I've promoted via Byte Back, Facebook, wiki.ubuntu, Twitter, and
Tumblr. Any other ideas?

Is anyone interested in helping spread the word?

Volunteers: 12-5:30

Public invited: 2 - 4:45

Thanks everyone for the supportive and kind encouragement,

Rik Goldman
